    This is the only mascara that holds a curl in my asian lashes, while my lashes aren't really short, they're very flat so curling them has become a priority, I wish it would give lots of volume as...

    This review is a little premature, I just bought it today! Price is a bit on the $$$ side but I don't use mascara everyday/week, so I'm expecting this to last me a while. I like it because: 1)...

    I really liked this product! It lengthened and made my lashes fuller and darker. Also, it didn't clump or smudge - a big plus for me! However, it is a big expensive and does not give a "false...

    A great mascara for those who want something that lasts all day, doesn't clump, and gives a natural, yet flatteringly enhanced, look to your lashes. I also like the FiberXtension mascara by Shu...

    $27.50 (lasts about 3 months) <br> This mascara is the most unique product in its class. It is a gel based waterproof mascara that does NOT clump or smudge and holds the perfect curl. Japanese...

    I was disappointed in this big time. It didn't show up at all on me! It was like I was wearing nothing at all. And for almost thirty bucks I expect a lot more than this.

    Overpriced and overhyped. This is very similar to the Neutrogena clean lash tint product in drugstores. It doesn't even seem to deposit any pigment (when I remove my eye makeup at the end of the...

    HG, love this! It never ever clumps. Very natural looking, never that spidery lashes look. If you are looking for that dramatic, false eyelashes look this isn't for you, but for everyday it...

    Well I honestly was contemplating whether to get this or Fresh Supernova...I tried both on each eye and the Shu Uemura was kinda dry and resulted in spider lashes..maybe it was a bad tube. But...

    I have been looking for a mascara to wear every day with contacts. This is the only mascara I have found so far that does not flake off into my eyes. This is a very basic mascara (no volumizing,...

    i have high expectations for mascaras. this one didnt lengthen nor curl, and worst of all it still does smudge. see my review for Dejavu Fibrewig and get that one instead, at 1/3 the price!

    With my Asian eyelashes, no smudges has always been an unattainable goal.This passed the teary eyed, overnite, rub, rub, rub test. No smudges. No racoon eyes. Lashes still curled upon waking up....

    This mascara does nothing for me - oh, nearly forgot. Yes it does. It smudges everywhere. Save yourself the money and bother and tint your lashes instead.

    I've always used waterproof mascaras because of my oily skin, and even then, they still leave black smears. Woe is me! So naturally I was skeptical when the Shu SA told me that Basic wouldn't...
